Objectives: The patterns of sexual behaviours and social factors were compared between married and single men. Methods: A retrospective cross-sectional survey of 174 male HIV patients was undertaken during March 1999\u2013June 2000 in Phnom Penh. Results: Many participants (61%) reported that they were unaware that their sexual behaviours may have put them at risk of HIV infection. Sexual behaviours included having sex with a sex worker (90%), multiple sexual partners (41%), and both of these behaviours (37%). Two-thirds (69%) reported using a condom when having sex with a sex worker. Condom use with multiple sexual partners was low (24%). A history of condom use with a sex worker was less likely to be reported among married men than single men (P = 0.008). Always using condoms with a sex worker did not differ between married men and single men. Social factors that influenced visiting a sex worker included invitation by a friend (88%), alcohol consumption (74%), and having extra spending money (72%). Multivariate analysis suggests that alcohol consumption (P = 0.008) and having extra spending money (P = 0.02) were strongly associated with visiting a sex worker. Conclusions: In Cambodia, HIV-infected men frequently reported a history of using sex workers. Having multiple sex partners or using a sex worker and multiple sexual partners were not rare. Interventions should target men in settings where alcohol is consumed and to encourage married men to use condoms.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1071\/sh08001","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2009,2,9]],"date-time":"2009-02-09T00:00:51Z","timestamp":1234137651000},"page":"353-358","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":8,"title":["Patterns of sexual behaviour of male patients before testing HIV-positive in a Cambodian hospital, Phnom Penh"],"prefix":"10.1071","volume":"5","author":[{"given":"Phan","family":"Sok","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"ASihanouk Hospital Center of HOPE (SHCH), St. 134, Sankat Vealvong, Khan 7 Makara, Phnom Penh, Cambodia."},{"name":"BPresent address: 247 Surgeoner Crescent, Newmarket, ON L3X 2L3, Canada."},{"name":"ECorresponding author.
